Khasi Monoliths

The Khasi Monoliths near Mawsmai are upright stone slabs erected by the Khasi community as memorials to ancestors, chiefs, and significant events in village history. The practice of raising these megaliths dates back generations and continues to hold cultural weight for local families. Scattered across open ground close to the Mawsmai Falls parking area, the monoliths are easy to combine with a visit to the falls or the nearby cave. Signage at the site explains the significance of individual stones where known.
